The William Hill Grand Prix II @ The Broadway - Birmingham

Keith how high do you rate Ali's game?

When his mind is on the game, and he's not on tilt from blackjack.. I think he's one of the top 3 players in Britain.

And as I doubt there's any blackjack tables in a tv studio in Cardiff I reckon he'll be pretty focussed...

Some praise.

Dont care what she has won, thats CRAP play and she wants to go and throw herself under a Train.

She puts him on a drawing hand, that's all it could be. And with the blinds going up quickly she wants to get the seat, not second. If he shows QJoff and misses she looks like a genius.

Just playing Devil's advocate.

Agreed, she's playing for the win. He could also have flush draw, or no pair no draw, he's hardly a tight player. Also she has an overcard, backdraw nut flush draw and backdoor straight draw. Given these circumstances it's surely an instant call!!

That is the biggest load of  CRAP lve ever read on this Forum. Sometimes you have to be honest even on Blonde which is always nicey nicey.

I think Rob was being sarcastic.

I never said it wasn't an awful call in my opinion, I was just trying to come up with reasons why she might call.

The fact she called in a flash which Chilli said, for her whole Tourney with such a precious first prize and good place money makes it even WORSE.

Who is your pick Maria?

Lucy makes plays like this all the time. It's what makes her so very difficult to play against.

It is easier to steal from Fort Knox than it is from Ms Rokach.

Its difficult to pick Mallu or Dave Smith because they are both very capable of not making the final as much as they are to win the thing.

I will go for Ian Woodley.

Pretty bleeding obvious... SHE THOUGHT SHE WAS WINNING!!!!

[Chili]

Chilli u should not have reported that as u have just put her reputation down the toilet amongst the BLONDE ARMY. Ah well it was good whilst it lasted Lucy.

It was not Chili that reported it - it was me - tikay.

I reported the hand as played.

I have the utmost respect for Lucy, as a player, and a friend.

I did not understand the play, but the Lady is an awesome player, & we must all respect & acknowledge that.

I wasn't even being sarcastic, how can you say it's terrible play when we don't even know how what % of the chips went in preflop. We know it's 73k total, I'm guessing a decent chunk of that was in preflop and Lucy fancies O'Connell to move in on the flop if he misses.

[Chili]

Back to work - Chili again.  We have lost 2 players already.  C Gavrielle and Cornelius.

We had a raise from J Clements, a call from Mr Mallu and a re-raise from Cornelius.  Clements went all in and so did Alli and Cornelius called.  On their backs.

Clements 
Alli Mallu   
Cornelius   

The bullets stood up and Cornelius was knocked out leaving Alli with about a 70k dent in his stack.  Clements upto 130k and we have 15 left.
